The third round of the Torneo Betano 2025 sets the stage for a thrilling encounter as Boca Juniors host Huracán. Fans will have a lot to look forward to since both teams are excited to build on the performances from the second round.

Boca Juniors (DD)

Boca Juniors played out a 1-1 draw against Unión Santa Fe, which included some drama. Saracchi gave them the lead in the 5th from a sharp transition for Boca. On the whole, Unión's defensive discipline could not prevent them from getting an late equalizer in stoppage time. Defensively, Boca dominated, with Unión having to contend with just two shots on target and nine attempts on theirs. Discipline was always a problem for the team as they conceded 13 fouls and were awarded two yellow cards letting their rhythm get out of sync. The crucial home fixture will help Boca regain control and put their style back in more consistently.

Huracan (DD)

On the other hand, Estudiantes drew 0 nil with Huracán. Huracán reposted (19 shots) but possessed (60%) and failed to capitalize on their opportunities to take the points at home. Their defense kept them in the match with two shots on target and goalkeeper Miljevic made a crucial save for a point. A major factor in Huracán’s inability to press home their dominance in the final third was missing. To challenge away from home, they will have to deal with this inefficiency.

Expert Betting Tips

Given that Boca Juniors have the historical edge in this match, it has a nice edge from home too. Huracán were however, on a defensive footing of late which could make them a very tough nut to crack. Boca Juniors’ playing strength and home advantage could win it for them, but Huracán’s well organised defence could well make for a tight one.
